29880478119_ORIG.jpegWe are looking for a female or two to grow our herd. We live near Memphis,TN and are willing to travel up to about 200 miles. We have about 2/3 acre of fenced yard dedicated to the torts. We currently have 1 male (about 35 lbs, 7 yrs old) and 1 female (about 60lbs, 12 yrs old).

For the winter months, we have a heated tortoise hut complete with a radiant heat floor covered in hay, basking lights, and temp control to emulate the natural changing of temps from upper 80's during the day to 60's at night. There is also a tortie door for them to come in and out of the hut when they want to graze, and a people door for cleaning out the poo. In the summer, they spend most of their time, when they get too warm, in their tortie built den underground or under the banana trees. The den, of course, is closed off in the winter.

Grandpa (male) & George (female) graze our tortoise-friendly plants and grasses naturally growing in the yard. On occasion we treat them with a some strawberries or pineapple, and maybe a little pumpkin. We also keep a few cuttlebones in their hut for them to nibble for calcium.

If you have a tort that needs a new home, please let me give her a good home!!

Thanks!!

Below is George (the female) with our dog Daisy.
